Bram Stoker nominated debut novel about the lives of a gypsy family caught up by a terrible curse in 19th century Hungary and Romania.
p class="style1">The philosophies of the Age of Enlightenment create sweeping changes throughout 19th Century Europe, but to Hungary’s despised nomads, the gypsies, the world is still a dark and very dangerous landscape. Adversaries both mortal and supernatural lurk in the shadows, waiting to strike without mercy.
p class="style1">Imre, a half-gypsy horse trader, understands the danger to his small family all too well. Cursed with a hideously-disfiguring and fatal disease by the vengeful sorceress Anyeta, he watches those around him suffer and fall.

Twain's classically humorous characters, Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn are reincarnated in the 21st century and are the feline familiars to a witch who runs an inn in Rhinebeck, New York.
Twain's Tom and Huck ( and he loved cats i>and /i>twins) are reincarnated as the feline familiars to a witch--and although they are thrilled to have some magical powers, they also long to be "boys" again.
The witch they belong to, Lady Bastet, runs a Bed and Breakfast in Rhinebeck in New York along with a couple of mild werewolves named Ted and Earle.
It's an homage to Twain, it's humorous, witty, and also has some dark and very poignant moments. Tom Sawyer is the narrator of this witty tale.
